Take Control of Mercury Vapor in the Dental Office

IQAir technology for mercury vapor control

IQAir Dental Series air purifiers are the most powerful air cleaning systems made specifically for dental offices and the operatory

Mercury that is heated during high-speed drilling of amalgam vaporizes into a toxic, odorless, colorless gas. To effectively capture this gas and other aerosols generated by dental drilling, an effective air cleaning system with extraction at the source must be used.

Hg FlexVac™: Ultimate mercury vapor control

The IQAir Dental Hg FlexVac is the most highly recommended choice for control of mercury vapor. The Dental Hg FlexVac excels at capturing drill aerosols, abrasion powder and mercury vapors during dental procedures. The flexible suction duct is placed on the patient’s chest to directly capture drill aerosols and mercury vapors before they become airborne or inhaled. The 780 CFM fan in the Dental Hg FlexVac quickly and powerfully removes aerosols and vapor. The Hg FlexVac system includes 11 pounds of granular activated carbon designed for maximum mercury filtration.

HyperHEPA filtration of particles

Extraordinary particle filtration, especially of fine and ultrafine amalgam particles that become airborne during highspeed drilling, is also essential. Only IQAir’s HyperHEPA filtration is proven and certified effective against particles as small as 0.003 microns in diameter, the smallest particles that exist.
